Microorganisms such as microalgae, yeasts, #fungi, #bacteria, and even #viruses can be utilized as biofactories to produce single and multi-element #inorganic_nanomaterials under mild conditions.
A mineral #nanocrystal based coating when is charged by any visible light and creates a potent oxidation reaction that completely breaks down any organic contaminants including #viruses and bacterias.
In PreLynx #sanitizer a #nanopolymer disinfectant vapor containing a potent #virucidal agent inactivates all of the lipophilic viruses including herpes, influenza, and #coronavirus within twenty minutes.
#Nanofiber face masks and #respirators enriched with accelerated #copper_oxide not only mechanically intercept #viruses and bacteria, they actively kill them as well.
Due to their two-dimensional structure, sharp edges, and negatively charged surfaces, #graphene_oxide nanosheets are capable of interacting with microorganisms such as #bacteria and #viruses.
#Nanofiber based #N95_respirators can block out at least 95 percent of the airborne particles larger than 2.5 microns, including droplets carrying #viruses and #bacteria.
